Eventhoug i start MyEclipse with the following settings, it still crashes with outOfmemory error

-startup
../Common\plugins\org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.0.101.R34x_v20080819.jar
–launcher.library
../Common\plugins\org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.win32.win32.x86_1.0.101.R34x_v20080731
-clean
-configuration
C:\Program Files\Genuitec\MyEclipse 7.1\configuration
-vm
C:\Program Files\Genuitec\Common\binary\com.sun.java.jre.win32.x86_1.5.0.011\bin\client\jvm.dll
-vmargs
-Xmx1024M
-XX:MaxPermSize=192M

Mostly this occurs when i try to open web.xml or while coding in a jsp file.

please reply

thanks,

harcharan,

Can you change those settings to -XX:MaxPermSize=256M please? That should correct the issue. Also, you might want to display the heap status at the bottom right of the workbench window by using MyEclipse > Utilities > Show Heap Status to ensure that you’re really able to get up to 1GB for global memory. Sometimes when you specify more than a JRE can get, it default to a really small maximum (silently, of course) and you run out very quickly. So, reducing the -Xmx setting if this is occurring will actually result in getting more memory allocated.
